Young Lad's First Deer Harvest...with PICS

[slider]

My hunting buddy's son took this deer last night from a double stand with his father...a seasoned crossbow hunter.

This fella is 12 years old and completed his hunter safety apprenticeship program just a few weeks ago here in Ontario. He practiced his shooting with Dad's trusty excal a few days ago and sealed the deal last night. His father is very proud of this accomlishment and I am so excited for this young new hunter.

He earned his dues in the Dec controlled hunt dogging with the gang on a few runs. He was very calm and made a great shot on this deer as he had to stand up slowly in the stand to avoid a tree limb

7 yard shot....20 yard recovery



Excellent exit wound



The youth is the future of our hunting heritage and this is just the start for this young lad!!
